UPDATED: Health ministers agree on improving health care, but premiers holding out: Duclos

Healthcare is provincial. Ford has shown Ontario he will not spend the federal funding where it belongs. Still editing to hear where $4B went. Hiwquivkly the conservatives forget that. No accountability = no funds

Because they are greedy slobs

No they’re not. LMAO

Ontario needs to get rid of fat Ford before he sells off the healthcare system

Dougie would rather privatize healthcare… using companies that are CPC supporters, naturally…

we dont have tylenol for kids in the pharmacies and this duchebag is trying to shit on somebody other than him? All this shit in our hospitals happened on his watch and due to his policies

Sending sick children to faraway hospitals is ‘not ideal,’ Ontario’s health minister saysHealth Minister Sylvia Jones acknowledges it is “not ideal” that kids are being sent to hospitals far from home because local children’s hospitals are swamped because of a post-pandemic surge of respiratory viruses like flu and RSV. “Not ideal,” the euphemism of the day to describe our collapsing healthcare system. Anyone questioning whether the entire population wearing masks can cause RSV to spike as well as Strep? Lock downs sure are brutal huh? Too bad there weren’t a tons of people that tried to warn us.

Provinces must commit to health-care reform, Trudeau says as health systems strain - National | Globalnews.caHealth-care advocates, including nurses and doctors' associations, have echoed Trudeau's call for a plan to transform Canada's broken system and to do it quickly. Ontarian here. Changes to health care take years to impact. This isn’t a quick fix. fordnation first term policy - enhanced by pandemic, created this mess. 💰 given now will take years to impact, just in time for next ON election. convenient playinggameswithyourhealth If they're going to expect that money is going to fix it then they are not doing their job properly. There needs to be an overhaul of healthcare and having a problem with accountability with money is bs. If you get a grant from the government you have to be accountable for it. Maybe take the money you’re giving Ukraine and spend it on health care instead of pushing privatization you clown
